Preparation
Prepare the Salad
Thinly slice the cucumber and red onion. Combine them in a large bowl with the fresh mint leaves.
Make the Vinaigrette
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, chili flakes, honey, and salt. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Candy the Peanuts
In a small pan over medium heat, add the peanuts and a splash of soy sauce. Stir frequently until they are coated and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat and let cool.
Assemble the Salad
Pour the vinaigrette over the cucumber mixture and toss gently to combine. Top with the soy candied peanuts before serving.
